   I'm well aware of the fun with inventory taxes. I worked in a large   
   international company at one of the manufacturing facilities. At one point,   
   my job was basically a data analyst taked with analyzing inventory to improve   
   delivery times for customer orders.  We opened a new facility on Singapore to   
   manifacture the same items we did to improve support Asia and Australia.   
      
   For about 2 years, we had to order material for both locations while yhe   
   located and qualified local suppliers to meet our specifications for things.   
      
   This resultedd in our loccation holding huge amounts of inventory, and me, a   
   non manager arguing with managers of several departments on 2 continents   
   about which location wound up with what material come inventory tax time.    
   Considering the 13 hour time difference betwern Singapore and Houston, I   
   didn't sleep much.
